How to process tissue?
Tissue Pre-treatment
Tissue
is pre-treated with a 10-minute enzymatic approach followed by the normal
protocol of host DNA depletion for SepsiTest™-UMD or placed into the SelectNA™plus instrument with Micro-Dx™.
Other
tissue treatments like bead beating are not validated nor covered in the IVD
workflow and possible disruption of the microbial cells or introduction of
contaminations needs to be considered here.
Please note:
For SepsiTest™-UMD and
Micro-Dx™ the microbial cells need to be intact!
Please refer to “What are the sample requirements?”
for more details.
